This study was conducted to investigate the distribution of wildbird at campus in Chungnam National University. The survey was carried over 5 districts by line transect method from May, 1999 to April 2000, The observed birds were 7 orders 21 families 46 species and 3,057 individuals, these consist of 25 species for residents, 12 species for summer visitors, 5 species for winter visitors, and 4 species for passage migrant. The average density of birds was 12 ea/ha, and main dominant species was Pica pica, Paradoxornis webbianus, Parus major, Aegithalos caudatus, Ixos amaurotis in order. Species richness of bird community showed a maximum value in spring, but density showed a maximum value in winter. Breeding bird community in study area were mainly predominated by hole-nesting guild, canopy-nesting guild and canopy-foraging guild. For the protection of wildbirds at campus, it needs to plant bushes around trails and to control users. Artificial food, water station and artificial nest are needed for the habituation of wildbirds.
